Well the blue Monster didn't last long...  it was too good to restore, and I didn't fancy chopping it about.

I thought long and hard on what I wanted...  and decided I wanted to build a scrambles type bike, and a good basis for that was another multistrada.  So here she is.  2003...  16k miles, and runs sweet as anything!  I will be selling parts off that I know I wont use over the forthcoming weeks, and then pop it to the back of the garage until I start it in earnest in the Autumn.

I don't feel bad about chopping a Multi about, they are all going to die eventually with failed fuel tanks as we move from E5 to E10.  I notice this tank is already an inch longer than it started life!

Watch this space!

I might be interested in the saddle, do you know what it is, aftermarket, DP or what?

Those ST series panniers will sell over at multistrada.net.
Front fender has the addition of a monster front fender, me think.

Is the top box painted or what?

Well its stripped of all the parts that that I will be selling on...  and I have cut the rear of the frame off so there is no going back now!

As an aside, I used some cutting discs a mate gave me...  its the first time I have had a disc shatter on me...  so glad I had a full grinding mask on me!  They went straight in the bin!

I have made a start on the Multistrada scrambler...  This is a Monster forum, so I am not sure if you guys want me to star another thread?

I'm not sure, but another thread would make searching easier.
